1989 Map of High Rock

USGS Topo · Published 1989

About this map

The San Francisco Mountains and Beaver Lake Mountains dominate this landscape, which spans the high desert border of Millard Co and Beaver Co. This late-twentieth-century survey documents an area shaped by livestock and mineral extraction, where water sources like James Spring and Three Kilns Spring were essential for survival. The presence of Kilns and a Quarry in the north, alongside more intensive operations like the Black Rock Mine and Usmm 2 in the southeast, indicates a legacy of resource exploitation across the ridges. Topographical features such as High Rock Pass and the deep cuts of Morehouse Canyon and Sawmill Canyon illustrate the complex drainages of the Frisco Mountains. Numerous Prospects and Mine Shafts scattered through the hills offer a detailed view of the regional mining activity that defined this part of Utah.
